yep. it suits my congenitally bowed legs, or life in the saddle...

Lisa [via text]: What is it about cycling that you like so much?

Me [via text]: This is it precisely: it challenges me. It's practical. It's eco-responsible. It's incredibly satisfying to make the distance by my own strength that others would only make by car. It's meditative. It appeals to my nerdy, boyscout-pack lite/but be prepared sensibilities. And i can pace and race myself.
